What this trial studies

This clinical trial aims to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Onyx™ Liquid Embolic System in patients experiencing active arterial bleeding in the peripheral vasculature, which excludes the heart and brain. It is a pivotal, prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, single-arm study enrolling up to 135 subjects across 25 sites in the United States. Participants will undergo the embolization procedure and will have follow-up visits at hospital discharge and 30 days post-procedure to monitor outcomes and any need for reintervention.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 22 and older with confirmed active arterial bleeding in the peripheral vasculature suitable for embolization.

Not a fit: Patients who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have active infections will not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could significantly improve outcomes for patients with severe peripheral arterial hemorrhage.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promise with embolization techniques for similar conditions, suggesting a potential for success with this approach.
